Federal halter squares & rings

[woolhat1864]

Does anyone know where to get correct halter squares and rings for a federal halter? All I can find is the round stock bent squares and rings that are a tad to big or small for my liking. I only need enough for one halter .

Thanks,
Tommy Jackson

Contact Ken Knopp, he may have some.

Tommy,

Like Andrew said, I think Ken has those very items and they are originals from Lovejoy Sta. battlefield in Ga. if memory serves me.

Yeah I've already talked to Ken and bought the ones with the leather still attached, which it's going to stay that way, but I am looking for some repoped ones.
I know someone makes them but I can't figure out who, I've already tried Weaver leather and all they have is brass or the round stock. The rings that I have seen in the past all have a 1 3/4" inside dia., that is if they were original like I was told, and today all I can find is 1 1/2" or 2" rings.

Dear "Santa Knopp",

I have been a good boy all year long and I would like to have a reproduction "Ringgold" saddle, a pair of "Leech & Rigdon" spurs, a Dance Bros revolver and a back up Spanish moss blanket as mine is showing a bit of wear.

I will watch my mail box, too, just like Tommy!!
